Pitty but no nominations for Heinlein’s “Moon is a Harsh Mistress”, as it does not exist in eBook form.
For the same reason, no nomination for “To Sail Beyond the Sunset”, or even “The Man Who Sold The Moon” (the novella not the book), the one I should, for sure, nominate! |

The poll is now open for 5 days.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34528 I added the three books that only had two nominations in order to have 10 books to select from. BOb |

BTW: Is "The Mote In God's Eye" available as an ebook? I don't see it in the Kindles store or on Fictionwise?

Anyone know a good place for books abstracts so I can link the nomination list to them?

Here is a question. I know this is an e-book reader site, and everyone has one, however, must the books be in digital format?
Why can't we choose from a paper version also? Would dramatically increase selection, no? So many wonderful books out there that aren't in digital format. Just a thought. |

For the purposes of this book club I'd prefer the books to be available electronically as I'm more likely to read them!
Maybe we need a poll for it? |

I'd like to keep it to available on ebook as well. No real good reason, I just think it is more fun that way.

I was gone for two days....
Is it too late to suggest a Haruki Murakami title? Don |
